This standard shall determine and quantify the flammabilitycharacteristics of materials containing polymers that areused in cleanroom applications.
The propensity of these materials to support fire propagation,as well as other flammability characteristics, are quantifiedby means of a fire propagation apparatus.

Expanded options in the 2017 edition of NFPA 287 help you evaluate the fire risk of materials and products containing polymers to determine their suitability for use in cleanrooms.
Expanded to include new provisions for smoke damage index — including a new definition and a new equation — the 2017 edition of NFPA 287: Standard Test Methods for Measurement of Flammability of Materials in Cleanrooms Using a Fire Propagation Apparatus (FPA) addresses methods for measuring the flammability characteristics of materials containing polymers that are used in cleanroom applications.
NFPA 287 is associated with a large-scale, self-sustained upward or flow-added fire propagation on materials and products. Measurements include:
The Standard is essential for testing laboratories and manufacturers that want to reduce fire dangers in cleanrooms.
Promote fire safety in cleanrooms with NFPA 287.
Developed in response to industry requests, NFPA 287 addresses methods for measuring the flammability characteristics of materials containing polymers used in cleanroom applications.
The Standard is associated with a large-scale, self-sustained upward or flow-added fire propagation on materials and products. Measurements include:
This 2007 edition is completely reorganized for clarity, ease-of-use, and consistency with NFPA’s Manual of Style.
